More data for collections and franchises Please add posters, background art, and summary for collections and franchises.
Comparing a collection on TheMovieDB -> https://www.themoviedb.org/collection/645-james-bond-collection
To one on IGDB -> https://www.igdb.com/collections/james-bond
You can see it's pretty lacking on IGDB. Hope this can be improved!

Folders for lists I have quite a few lists now and just scrolling through them to find the one I want is less than ideal. It would be great if we could have a way to sort lists for instance, simple folders, to make the list page more manageable.

Stop Classifying PS Classics Games on PS4 & PS5 as Duplicate "Port" Entries Why are some of the PS1, PS2, & PSP Classics titles being released on the PS4 & PS5 being given duplicate entries and being called "ports"? These games are not ports, they are the same exact game released on PS1, PS2, & PSP playable on PS4 & PS5 entirely through emulation. There is a layer outside of the game that allows the unlocking of trophies and save states, however the game itself is completely unmodified, anything extra is all being done through the consoles emulation layer.
Examples of this are Twisted Metal, Syphon Filter, The Legend of Dragoon, and many…

Use the IGDB’s naming convention of Splatterhouse (2010) and Splatterhouse (1988) to ensure the content classification system works properly There are two video games named Splatterhouse. One of them is a 3D M-rated video game that was released in 2010 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The second is a 2D T-rated video game that was released in 1988 in arcades and consoles such as the TurboGrafx-16.
To keep them distinct, the IGDB labels the M-rated video game “Splatterhouse (2010)” and the T-rated video game “Splatterhouse (1988)”.
But in Twitch, both video games are listed as “Splatterhouse”. As a result, when a streamer chooses the game “Splatterhouse”, Twitch automatically assumes the streamer is playing both Splatterhouse (2010) and…

Stream Info > Category improvement I would really love to see if you could find a way to let us search games by igdb id.
That would help to find the correct game if the name is taken my multiple games.If this is the wrong place to request this, please feel free to delete it again.

Mention that Reviews are being checked for spam When You Post a review it simply "vanishes" but isn't shown anywhere, so I thought It didn't process my Review. I was told it is because of Spam, it takes some time.
Would be great to have some Notification or Hint that it takes some time to process.

Keeping the game category consistent The Binding of Isaac: Repentance has 2 same categories of itself for some reason, whilst being the same thing.
It should only be 1 category imo to prevent confusion

Detach Characters from Credits (Proper Characters DB) Right now character data is linked to their respective voice actors, which is linked to the game credits, the thing is game credits is a feature quite forgotten at this point, and also not all characters have voice actors, would be possible to make us link and create character data for each game without needing to add the game's whole credits?
Something like a new "Characters" section in a game page.
And being able to create and link characters entries in games.Something like this:

Allow POST commands to endpoints for providing data updates I'm currently working on a project where any (eventual) users of my app will (with their consent) be parsing their game libraries and providing data where it's missing in igdb, I'd like to be able to post this data via my app to your database.
Obviously, I'm not expecting to be able to post directly, but the ability to log contribution requests via POST commands would be good.

Game Documentary/History Video Type Categories While this may need a bit of oversight, there are some extremely good examples of documentaries or historical breakdowns of game releases and/or even controversies. These are topics that are not generally covered in the official trailers or dev logs, or even gameplay videos. These videos can lay out a history of why some titles are cancelled, or overhauled, or have a troubled history outside of the game itself.
Examples:
Noclip's FFXIV 1.0 to A Realm Reborn Documentary
https://youtu.be/Xs0yQKI7Yw4What Happun? series
https://youtu.be/x3JYev-4lOcTop Hat Gaming: Renegade/River City Ransom/Kunio-kun

Suggest Games Based on What Friends are Playing I would like to get suggestions based on what my friends are currently playing. Just a section that says what my friends are playing, not the whole discover thing.

search games by a specific day right now you can see games in a specific month or a specific year. But you can't search by a exact day regardless what year, like today in history in mobygames https://www.mobygames.com/stats/this-day. I think you have all the data, just need add some buttons. Thanks.

Ghost "played" game I submitted a game prologue, which was rejected because it was a demo.
However, I marked that game as "played" before it was rejected. Now, I have a ghost "played" game, whose existence is given away by the game count.
I would like to be able to remove that "ghost" game from the list, but it is not visible in the list, and I don't know its IGDB ID, so I cannot forge an API request to remove it from the list.
A simpler fix would be NOT to count "ghost" games when counting the number of games in a…

Select default cover-art on a case-by-case basis rather than taking a US-centric viewpoint It is my understanding that you are planning to implement a system where multiple cover-arts can be uploaded. This is a good start, but I strongly suggest you consider allowing the defaults (those shown on the IGDB page to logged out users, and those shown on Twitch) to be selected on a case-by-case basis. Factors such as popularity in differing regions and how the game is represented need to be taken into account, for example there are games that, though they released in the US, never received any sizable following there whereas they did elsewhere. To only allow US box…

Pending Cover Art placeholder image I actually like the new placeholder image for missing covers on entries, however, the same image will show for pending uploads to new covers while the system caches the preview. This can be confusing to new users that don't understand they simply need to wait for their submission to upload before it displays. A separate "preview pending" image would help to communicate this to new users.

Prototype datatype There are many games that ended up becoming a different game, or with prototypes so different from the official release that deserve a main entry in the database, but now there's no right way to link them (the datatypes now don't match this description, and the versions are likely to be used only to editions). A few wxamples:
EarthBound 64 / Mother 3
Gimmick Land / Tomato Adventure
Donkey Kong Racing / Sabreman Stampede
Rayman SNES / Rayman2 votes
